I Am a Corrupt Official, But They Say I Am a Loyal Minister!

"Uncle Emperor, what evidence do you have?"The empress asked.

She couldn't help but feel a little worried. Wouldn't King Jiangnan really get the handle?

How could she help Lin Beifan fool him?

King Jiangnan took off his python robe and took it out from the hidden cuff inside. He picked up two pieces of crumpled paper, then glared at Lin Beifan fiercely, and said loudly with the joy of revenge:"Your Majesty, please see, these are the two artifacts that this thief Lin Beifan sold to me! This should have been written by Lin Beifan himself. Whether it is true or false, you can tell at a glance!"

"Present it!"The empress said.

After a moment, she opened the two papers presented by the eunuch and read them carefully. I was a little worried at first, but now I am not worried at all!

She smiled and handed the two papers through the eunuch:"Everyone My dear, this is the evidence of the emperor's uncle, you should also take a look! And Lin Aiqing, take a look too!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

The officials circulated it one after another, glanced at Lin Beifan, and then at King Jiangnan, and shook their heads.

King Jiangnan had a bad premonition in his heart:"What do you mean?"

Not long after, the two pieces of paper returned to the hands of the empress. The empress smiled and asked:"What do you think of the evidence of the emperor's uncle?

First, Wang Rushui, Minister of the Ministry of Industry, stood up and said respectfully:"Your Majesty, these two manufacturing methods are indeed the manufacturing methods of large balloons and hovercrafts, with only slight differences!" However, if Mr. Lin is convicted based on two pieces of evidence, I really cannot agree with it!"

"How to say?"The empress asked with a smile

"Because the handwriting on these two pieces of evidence is completely different from Mr. Lin’s! Wang

Rushui said in a deep voice:"Master Lin's handwriting is not only neat, but also majestic and righteous. It looks very comfortable and pleasing to the eye. Wei Chen likes it very much!""

"But the words on these two manufacturing methods look much more delicate and thinner. Although they look good, they are not written by Master Lin at all!"

"Therefore, with this evidence, it is impossible to convict Mr. Lin!"

All the officials nodded in agreement.

"Yes, the handwriting is completely different!"

"It's not Mr. Lin's name, how can you convict Mr. Lin?"

"It may be a forgery, completely untrustworthy!"

……

King Jiangnan lost his guard:"Impossible!"

The empress said with a smile:"Uncle, there is nothing impossible! I and the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty have seen Lin Aiqing's calligraphy, and they can recognize it at a glance! Yes, yes, no No, how could you admit your mistake? Uncle Emperor, you have gone too far, deliberately producing false evidence to frame my beloved?"

Lin Beifan immediately raised his hands and said:"Your majesty is wise, all of you are wise!"

Looking at Lin Beifan With De Se's little appearance, King Jiangnan was furious:"I still have evidence!"

"Uncle Emperor, what evidence do you have?"The Empress asked.

King Jiangnan carefully took out a small bag from inside the python robe.

When the small bag was opened, it was full of white powder.

"What is this?"The empress asked curiously.

King Jiangnan held the small bag carefully and said,"This is the dragon bone! This is the dragon bone that I paid a huge price to obtain from Lin Beifan! Originally there was still a lot, but I used it to exchange for food, and only this little is left!"

"As soon as the word"dragon bone" came out, all the civil and military officials in the dynasty were not calm.

This is a sacred object, something with a price but no market. How many people dream of it, maybe it can make people immortal!

"Present it!" said the empress.

The empress looked at the ordinary white powder in front of her eyes, blinked slightly, and said:"Uncle, this dragon bone looks the same as flour. You say this is a dragon bone. How can you prove it?"

"this……"King Jiangnan was speechless.

How can he prove such a divine thing?

The best way is to let him perform miracles, but he can't!

An idea struck her and she said:"I once used the same dragon bone to exchange food with Dayan! If it were not a real dragon bone, would they exchange it? Are they willing to exchange it?" The empress smiled softly and shook her head:"Uncle Emperor , your statement is simply untrustworthy! How did Dayan identify that this was a real dragon bone? They don’t have a dragon bone! Moreover, Dayan is an enemy country, so their words cannot be trusted!"

"Ah this……"King Jiangnan stuttered

"Well, even if this is a real dragon bone, how can you prove that Lin Aiqing gave it to you?"The empress asked again.

King Jiangnan said anxiously:"The only one who could get close to the dragon bone at that time was Lin Beifan! If this was a real dragon bone and it didn't come from his hands, who else could it be? The empress shook her head:"

Uncle, you are totally arbitrarily convicting me!" Lin Aiqing does have the best chance of getting close to the dragon bone, but besides Lin Aiqing, there are tens of thousands of people guarding the dragon bone, and they all have a chance to get the dragon bone! Just like the officials of the imperial court, they have more or less some……"

All the officials in the imperial court said:"Ahem!……"

"So, Uncle Emperor, you want to convict my beloved just based on this white powder of unknown origin, which may not even be a dragon bone, you are simply acting indiscriminately!"

"Your majesty is wise! Lin Beifan said loudly.

Seeing Lin Beifan's arrogant look, King Jiangnan became angry again.

"I still have evidence! In order to bribe Lin Beifan, I have given him many rare and rare treasures in the past two years, such as the Three Treasures Ruyi and the Kowloon True Gold Coffin.……"

King Jiangnan read out a pile of treasures and said:"There are too many things! If you search his house, you will definitely find them, and you can convict him!" The empress was silent for a moment and said:"These treasures, I have never heard of most of them! However, I know about the Three Jewels Ruyi and the Nine Dragons True Gold Coffin, and they are definitely not in Aiqing’s hands!"

"ah? Why?"King Jiangnan was dumbfounded.

"Because these two treasures are in my hands! Hurry up and hide these two treasures and let your uncle see them!"The Empress shouted.

After a while, two treasures were carried up by several eunuchs.

One was the Three-Bao Jade Ruyi, which was completely carved from jade. It looked crystal clear and dreamlike.

The other was the Nine Dragons True Gold. The coffin is a small coffin, all made of gold. It is engraved with a real dragon with nine coiled heads. It is extremely noble.

"Uncle Emperor, go and see if these are the two treasures in your hands?

King Jiangnan's eyes widened and he said in disbelief:"It's true, they are exactly the same. Why are they in your hands?"

The empress said with a smile:"This is a tribute brought by an envoy from a small country to me!" It is said that they saw it at an auction in their country, so they paid a lot of money for it and presented it to me as a tribute!"

"ah? how so?"King Jiangnan was dumbfounded again.

After thinking about it, he argued:"Maybe Lin Beifan got it and sold it over there with the intention of selling off the stolen goods! The empress shook her head:"

Uncle, you have gone too far!" That small country is more than 2,000 miles away from the capital, a very long journey! Since Lin Aiqing became an official in the court, she has basically stayed in the capital. The few times she left the capital, she only went out after receiving court assignments. Every time she came and went in a hurry, she had no chance to travel to a small country more than 2,000 miles away!"

"If he didn't go, you can find someone else to go.……"

"Your statement is even more unfounded! Lin Aiqing was born as a commoner and her family has no power! Since he entered the imperial court and became an official, he has been living in seclusion and has strict requirements on himself., no faction has developed, and no one can command it! You said he was looking for someone, who could he be looking for?

Lin Beifan said loudly:"Your Majesty is wise!""

Smiling secretly in my heart, with Bai Guanyin and the forces behind me helping to dispose of the stolen goods, you can't even think of finding out anything about me.

"Therefore, Uncle Emperor, all your claims are completely baseless and not enough for people to believe! In other words, you are simply trying to frame my loyalty, and your intentions are to be punished!"The empress shouted loudly, with strong dissatisfaction in her tone.

She looked at Lin Beifan again and said distressedly:"Ai Qing, you have been wronged! I will give these two treasures to you as compensation for your uncle. You must accept them and don’t refuse! Lin

Beifan was stunned. After turning around, these two treasures returned to his hands, and they were completely legal!

What a beautiful thing!

Lin Beifan burst into tears with gratitude:"Thank you, Your Majesty. I will do my best until my death!""

The King of Jiangnan next to him was furious!

After all the provocations, he was still not brought down, but he was still allowed to legally own two of my king's treasures. Where is the justice?

"I still have evidence……"

The empress waved her hand impatiently:"Deport him, I don't want to hear anymore!"

Two imperial guards came up and wanted to escort King Jiangnan down.

King Jiangnan struggled and screamed

"Don’t leave, my king! This king has something to say!"

"Lin Beifan is really a traitor! As long as he is here, Dawu will never have peace and will be completely doomed!"

"Your Majesty, if you still think I am the emperor's uncle, arrest him quickly!"

"Otherwise, our Dawu will definitely be destroyed in his hands! Destroyed by his hands!"

"If you don’t catch him, you will definitely regret it!"

"You will definitely regret it!!!"

……

The empress waved her hand again:"Detain him immediately, I don't want to see him anymore!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

The King of Jiangnan was carried out like a piggy.

Looking at the Jinluan Palace getting further and further away, he shouted with all his strength:"Hunjun! Dawu will definitely die in your hands!"

King Jiangnan was still taken away, and his voice gradually disappeared.

The empress looked at Lin Beifan again and said apologetically:"My dear, uncle, he has no future, so he is hysterical and wants to bite you back! Don't take his words to heart and alienate the feelings of our monarch and his subjects!"

"What your Majesty said is absolutely true, and I will never take it to heart! How can an anti-king statement shake the tacit understanding and feelings between our monarch and his ministers?"Lin Beifan smiled.

"well said! Let us monarchs and ministers work together to create great military power!"The empress said loudly

"Yes, Your Majesty!"Lin Beifan bowed.
